Hope India doesn't wreck 'Rambo', says Sylvester Stallone

We bet Tiger Shroff is wishing that he hadn't got this shout-out.

Veteran Hollywood actor Sylvester Stallone seems to have discovered the upcoming Hindi remake of his claim-to-fame movie Rambo.

In a recent Instagram post, Stallone expressed his hope that India doesn't "wreck" Rambo, that is, produce a substandard adaptation of that iconic Hollywood action flick.

“I read recently they are remaking Rambo in India! Great character. Hope they don’t wreck it,” Stallone captioned the image.

The Indian remake, which will star Tiger Shroff, will be directed by Siddharth Anand. “Grew up on this character, humbled and blessed to step into his shoes years later,” Tiger had tweeted.

The film will follow life of last surviving member of an elite covert unit of the Indian Armed Forces who returns home to discover a war waging in his own land and how he unleashes mayhem by becoming an unstoppable machine after tough training.

After Stallone's statement went viral, he was quick to issue a clarification.

He wrote, "Some people like to read into words and twist them. Good luck, Tiger. Go fight the good fight, keep punching. Oh, for the record , I DO NOT CONTROL THE RAMBO PROPERTY. The company Millennium does! They also own Expendables. Good luck with that one too."

Now, this shout-out isn't too bad!
